Members of Congress have their hands full

There are so many major issues being debated in Washington these days, including reform of our healthcare system, legislation designed to save our economy, regulation of the financial institutions and much more, that I won’t attempt to write in depth on any of them. The healthcare debate is perhaps the hottest item, but there are many other important issues being considered. It appears the Republican Party is simply opposing any change in our Nation’s Capitol, while offering nothing of substance to the debates, and that’s unacceptable. Hopefully, in September, a report can be made on the progress that was made this month in Congress. While healthcare is getting most of the attention, members of Congress should not forget that fixing the nation’s economy is the top priority.
